He adapted it from a 15th century Persian knife with a blade grind designed to penetrate chain mail the result is a work knife with an incredibly strong full thickness tip. strong and rigid InterFrame build, assembled with stainless steel spacers and Torx® fasteners. It uses dual 420J2 stainless steel liners, one locking, and injection molded black Zytel scales textured similarly to custom models. The dual checkered thumb studs are the blade stop. Combined with the “flipper” blade guard, they allow fast ambidextrous one-hand opening. This design also results in a deep finger choil for grip. The handle is 4.25 inches in length. The special blade grind leaves the full 0.12” blade width near the tip for exceptional strength and penetrating power. Made of satin finished AUS 6M stainless steel, blade is 3 inches in length total. Aggressive grooves at the spine and flipper give great feel and security. Like all CRKT locking liner folders, the Pesh-Kabz features Teflon® bearings at the blade pivot for smooth action. also is incorporated the patented* Lake And Walker Knife Safety (LAWKS®), which converts the folder to a virtual fixed blade when actuated with a flick of the thumb.
